Kleen HY-DRO-GEN

Are carbon-intensive fossil fuels or expensive electric furnaces the only options to generate high-grade heat for your homes?

Until very recently, the answer to this question was a resounding yes. Fortunately, Kleen HY-DRO-GEN Inc.’s flagship product KleenHeatTM is changing this paradigm. Amid the global push to tackle climate change by cutting carbon emissions, the Canadian company provides practical and sustainable systems backed by over 15 years of groundbreaking research and development.

The centerpiece of its innovation is KleenHeatTM, a game-changing home heating system that uses gaseous hydrogen to deliver intense and environmentally friendly heat. The on-demand, zero storage, clean-burning H2 molecule makes KleenHeatTM a zero-emission technology that’s safe, efficient and affordable. The technology leverages hydrogen’s properties and efficiently transfers generated heat to virtually any heat exchanger unit.

The KleenHeatTM system is a groundbreaking approach that uses water electrolysis to split water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen. The hydrogen is then burned in a furnace to provide consistent heat. Once the temperature set on a thermostat is reached, the system automatically shuts off, halting H2 gas production, while assuring safety with no need for fuel storage.

“Conventional systems that require storing liquid hydrogen can make homeowners feel like they are sitting on a bomb, waiting for it to go off. KleenHeatTM eliminates the need for storage and the associated safety risks,” says Thomas Fairfull, president and CEO.

In a market where heating systems are tied to carbon-heavy natural gas, Kleen’s patent-pending solution offers a visionary alternative to transform households everywhere and set a new standard for green living.
A System Designed for Safety and Sustainability

Kleen developed, refined and commercialized the groundbreaking technology with minimal external support. Its team of experienced engineers and hydrogen specialists is committed to sustainability and innovation. KleenHeatTM’s potential was proven during several pilot studies. A notable one involved a prototype installed in Ajax, Ontario, which provided valuable data and proof of concept over a year. Insights from this trial run enabled Kleen’s engineers to refine the design and prepare for mass production. With six commercial units built and final software updates underway, the company is gearing up for broader installations by 2025, which will be the next step toward full market entry.

Engineered to meet industry standards, KleenHeatTM combines advanced safety features with exceptional manufacturing quality. An electronic control panel and HDMI user interface for intuitive operation complement its high-grade, special alloy stainless steel build. Each unit undergoes rigorous quality control and assurance testing to ensure reliability and durability. Installed exclusively by licensed, certified HVAC technicians, KleenHeatTM prioritizes user safety with features like on-demand hydrogen production, over-pressure and over-temperature controls, a motorized gas shutoff valve and in-line flashback safety arrestors. These measures make KleenHeatTM both secure and efficient for residential use.

Safety and efficiency are at the core of KleenHeatTM. The hydrogen combustion system produces water as the only byproduct, eliminating the carbon monoxide and GHG emissions that natural gas furnaces can produce. This makes it safer, potentially saving thousands of lives annually while reducing homeowner insurance costs.

Unlocking a Net Zero Footprintb

KleenHeatTM’s innovative design doesn’t just redefine home heating—it addresses some of the most pressing challenges in global energy and environmental policies. Eliminating carbon emissions and enhancing energy security, it perfectly aligns with the broader societal goals of reducing dependence on fossil fuels and combating climate change. This alignment has not gone unnoticed, as governments and environmental organizations increasingly recognize KleenHeatTM’s potential to make a measurable impact on greenhouse gas reduction targets.

Unlike traditional gas furnaces that generate megatons of carbon emissions across the globe every year, KleenHeatTM leaves no carbon footprint. The technology also enables consumers to benefit from sustainability-driven government incentives and cost-saving measures, making it an economical and sustainable choice for modern-day households.

In Canada, federal clean hydrogen tax credits can substantially offset installation costs, making it easier for homeowners to adopt KleenHeatTM. Beyond these incentives, which align with the nation’s pledge to foster sustainable energy solutions, KleenHeatTM does not require any infrastructure and eliminates the need to buy natural gas, propane or oil. The system’s estimated operating cost of approximately $6 per day in electricity can be reduced even further using off-grid renewable energy sources and carbon credits. Kleen’s carbon credit revenue-sharing program allows homeowners to earn carbon credits, which can be sold on carbon credit marketplaces—offering another way to save. The combined result is an easily accomplished goal of net zero heating bills.

For those aiming to eliminate energy costs, integrating a 10-kilowatt solar array enables it to function independently of the grid, achieving a net-zero energy footprint. This combination of tax credits, carbon trading opportunities and energy cost savings establishes KleenHeat as a leading example of sustainable innovation that aligns environmental responsibility with financial practicality.
Paving the Way for Greener Operations

“Kleen is more than just a technology company; it’s a catalyst for change in how we think about heating and energy. We’re proving that you can sync profit with sustainable practices to create something that benefits the environment while generating economic value,” says Arthur Crapopoulos, an early investor and strategic leader.

Kleen’s solution is highly scalable and pivotal in reshaping residential construction. It can offer builders the chance to significantly reduce construction costs by eliminating the need for chimneys and unlocking savings of up to thousands of dollars per home. Its disruptive technology also has the potential to shift energy dynamics in gas-dependent regions, offering a cleaner, more sustainable alternative. Above all, KleenHeatTM ensures independence from external gas supplies, enhancing energy security and providing a lifeline for areas impacted by gas shortages or climate change.

“Our technology is truly disruptive—requiring no infrastructure; it can be deployed anywhere in the world, offering unprecedented accessibility and efficiency,” says Sam Soliman, head of engineering services.

Governments and industries are already noticing KleenHeatTM's positive impact. The Canadian Environmental Committee has recognized Kleen HY-DRO-GEN as the only technology provider capable of helping the nation meet its 2030 greenhouse gas reduction targets. This recognition paves the way for future partnerships with homebuilders, government grants and strategic industry alliances, which provide a strong foundation for the company's growth.

A Vision for a Sustainable Future in Heating

Kleen’s zero-emission heating solution is a hands-on, cost-effective innovation that redefines home heating while driving a cleaner energy future. Through public education on hydrogen safety and the integration of carbon credit programs, the company is creating an impactful alternative to carbon-heavy heating systems. This sets a blueprint for environmentally conscious living and demonstrates how sustainability and profitability can go hand in hand.
Kleen has a clear roadmap for growth. The company is starting with residential heating and plans to expand into industrial heating, cooking and water heating applications in the coming years. This phased approach ensures that Kleen can build a strong foundation before diversifying into additional markets.

In 2025, Kleen plans to open its doors for new investment opportunities, consolidating the resources needed to meet growing demand and scale operations globally. As inquiries pour in from across Canada, it is actively preparing a strong distribution network of licensed HVAC installers and sales centers to bring its technology to as many customers as possible.

For homeowners, industries and governments alike, Kleen HY-DRO-GEN Inc. represents more than just a heating system; it’s a bold step toward a cleaner, safer and more sustainable world.
